    Default Where can I get my Genesis modded for s-video/composite output?

    I don't know how to do it myself.

    Also:

    I have a model 1 High Definition Graphics model 1 Genesis (non-TMSS) and it has an annoying buzzing sound in the background in all my games, whereas my later model 1's (non-HDG, TMSS, VA6/VA7) don't have the buzzing. Is there a way to fix it?

    EDIT: I now recommend using the schematic posted by PC-Engine Hell, see later posts for details

    I used the tutorial from
    http://www-unix.ecs.umass.edu/~dhowland/mod/
    and it worked out well.

    I built a couple of extra S-Video amplifier circuits since the components were so inexpensive. Let me know if you want one.

    Are you trying to mod a model 1 or a model 2?

    Search the buy/sell forum, I have seen several threads for people who offer modding services.

    I have one for sale on ebay right now, has a couple of days left if you want to check my auction thread. I also have this info up on my site:
    http://home.comcast.net/~amakusa666/...CX1145-MOD.htm

    It works for I think about any system using the CXA1145 (Master System, X'eye, Genesis 1, and some models of Genesis 2, ect).

    I believe the method I have listed is basically the one being used currently by a lot of people as of late. My understanding is they even ran a slightly different (resistor value wise) version of the mod I use up against the NeoGeo Mega Mod/old style one NCrouther posted about on some forums and it smoked the old one visual quality wise easily. I think this thread discusses the comparing of the it versus the Mega mod a little if you want to look:
    http://www.neo-geo.com/forums/showthread.php?t=201758

    If you want more examples to see how well it looks, the method I linked to on my site I mean, just watch the video I have up on my youtube channel.

    Id be willing to do the mod, along with a region mod and stereo sound for you, but it will cost you some parts and labor cost, plus shipping expenses. It may be a lot cheaper on you if you can do the mod yourself.

    I bought mine on E-bay. They don't appear too often, but it's worth the wait.
